Absolutely not. But I would forward it to your companys legal counsel and let them determine how to proceed.
-
Don't the courts have to authorize a subpoena? I think yes is the answer, which also means some sort of due process should have included a notification to your company (and/or it's lawyers) to represent the companies interests in whatever hearing p…

Generally speaking, I do not use surveys that are not locally focused, and, if possible, industry specific. It does you no good to know what casino dealers in Nevada are paid if you are engaged in mfg in Illinois. That's obvious, but even mfg pay …

We had a similar situation with an EE that also had Short term and long term disability implications. After FML expired (she used every bit of it), she tried to come back to work part-time per her Dr's release. We accomodated the part-time request…

I am biased toward accounting and finance folks, so admitting this opinion pains me somewhat. Controllers are more easily replaced than a good sales person. A good salesperson is rare. You don't find these people everywhere, and they often come w…

Not sure I understand all your concerns, but the items you have mentioned can be easily handled with a few straightforward forms and appropriate sign-offs. It is not unusual for payroll duties to fall under the accounting department. For example, …
-
Within the guidelines of which law? I always have a bullet point on each job description that says "...other duties as assigned..." Even if you don't have that, what is wrong with just telling the generalist that he/she does not have enough to do?…

I think you should buy him one of those rubber maskes that leaves only eye holes and nose holes and locks behind his head. Only let him take it off with permission, and make him write: "Please mistress, may I speak now?"

We fingerprint through the County Sheriffs Department, who then run them for any State hits. The prints are forwarded to the highway patrol, when then run them for national hits.
-
Ok, I'll say ouch. Shirley, perhaps you have a most unusual company where EEs do not talk to each other about things that bother them. Perhaps your employees do not exaggerate things to spin in their favor, perhaps your company is one of those rar…

I do think there is a large distinction between the approach a company takes with active employees versus ex-employees. I don't have a lot of disagreement with providing current ees with copies of everything they have signed. It just makes sense. …
-
Well stated.
-
Current EEs get them, but cooperating with an ex-EE whose intent is to sue the company does not require courtesy. With all the problems the courts give us about consistent application of policies, once a former EE is outside the State mandated laws…
-
For a current EE, the copy process is no big deal. If it is an ex-EE, then I would be way more resistant to giving up anything in the file. I do want to make it difficult at that point. If an EE wants to bring an attourney in, then that attorne…
-
While they are employed, we provide copies of anything they sign during their employment.
-
I would only verify to the person/company requesting information, and then only if a signed release from the former EE was included. Even then, I only answer start and end dates, title, and will verify final pay if it is included. I answer no othe…

Unless you have objective criteria for scoring the attributes you are evaluating, any scoring averages will be very subjective. For exammple: Jane Doe is tough. He never gives high marks and expects top performance. On a 5 point scale, he rarely…
-
Sounds to me like she is referring to some sort of clause in a union contract. Since you mentioned comp time - is this a state or federal agency? Otherwise, comp time is illegal.
-
The piece of paper (diploma) just opens the door. Is an A from an online school equal to a C from a "normal" school? These kinds of comparisons are difficult to make. It comes down to what you learned and how you apply that knowledge. In the end…
-
I'll bet your State's version of the DOL can assist you. An on-line search or a phone call should get you that information.
-
I think it is a red flag and the first easy step to a lawsuit. I say if the Ee is thinking of getting lawyers involved, then why make it easy for the lawyer to go on a fishing expedition in your files. Let them go to the hassle and expense of subp…
-
To my knowledge, this is State Law driven. In Nevada, we would not have to provide anything to an employee who was gone as long as this one has been.
-
Stick a provision in the written agreement that all work product is company product.
-
I would stick with the way you have done it all these years. If she has serious issues, then require her to document her "problem" to see if it can even be accomodated. If it is an ADA issue, then her problem is serious you have some traction rega…
-
Is the other company going to be billed for the labor, plus an administrative upcharge? The biggest issue I see involves achieving equity if the businesses have different owners/shareholders/etc.

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 02-12-07 AT 03:59PM (CST)[/font][br][br]Thats the Federal level. Many states have passed their own state minimum wage laws. Nevada generally tracks with the Fed law, however the current law calls for $…

NO! A thousand times NO! Thank God.
-
We require our EEs to utilize their leave banks. Otherwise, we will not pay when they are not on the clock.
-
Yes, the appeal does not mention the EE by name. We allow a 40 hour carryover of unused vacation each year. No maximum number of times - it has never even arisen more than once a person so far. When the requests come in, I also determine if the E…
-
Caroliso - as to the appeal, we just indicate the Exec Director has determined that an employee has qualified under our catastrophic leave policy and is looking for time donations. We estimate the number of hours needed and include that if we know.…
